Re: Flopped straight problem
Don't know if it's good thinking or not, but I did the same thing.
AHABCAPTAIN - Bets $370, MP2 Raises $740 to $740, AHABCAPTAIN - All-In(Raise) $780 to $1150, MP2 Calls $410. Pot $2900.
*** RIVER *** [4s]
AHABCAPTAIN - Shows [Qs Kh] (Straight, nine to king)
MP2 Shows [Ac Qh] (Straight, ten to ace)
MP2 Collects $2900 from main pot
The problem is that as you said, we are hoping that he has a set. After later examination it's just unlikely because I suppose he would have raised preflop with 99, TT, JJ or KK. It's more likely he has a queen and we are about to split the pot. Unfortunately he also had an ace and busted me from the tourney.
What's your opinion, should I have folded after his raise on the turn? It usually is a sign of a very strong holding but can also be a semi-bluff.
